Default Got the Bike!!!

I know most of you have not followed my trek thru Iraq but that is another story. Well anyway I picked up my 06 EGS from the dealer on Monday. I have about 105 miles so far. Love it, a great upgrade from the Sportster in the aspect of comfort. I enjoyed the Sporty for the agility and ā€œHot-Rodā€ value.

I am not going to downgrade or B&G about the dealer since I know they made almost nothing off of my Military Sales deal. I would have liked a little more attention but that is a separate issue.

Anyway just wanted to check in on the net and tell all I got my bike. I’ll post pics once I get a few of the mods planned.

Out Here…Richard

Welcome home. Congratulations on the Bike,YOU deserve it!!!! I am sure the dealer did not mind losing a couple of coins for you. Please ride safe, too many stories in the news about returning vets and M/C incidents. God Bless You all
